It means that sometimes your best shot opportunity is still not good enough to knock out a tank. Like if you have infantry about to outflank you your only option might be to fire a shot at the frontal armor of the tank and hope for the best because within a few seconds your cover will be blown and you will not be able to fire any shot.

nICE INFO.! So is it easier to shoot a RPG on top of the turret? So IF a rebel shoots from a roof of a building ? Will the tank be destroyed?

As you continue to read this paragraph it goes to explain that 25mm DU-AP rounds fired from a Bradley disabled to engine on an M1.

From what I read in the report.No M1 has been destroyed from Iraqi insurgents , only one has be totally destroyed and the was from friendly fire of on Sabot, a thermite grenade and two Maverick Missiles. Also the photos and pics of M1's scorched or burned by friendly fire or by ammo ejection, also by vandalism by Iraqi's or striped for parts.

Only one report of penetration for enemy fire is recorded, that is of the strange round the pentrated throught the non-ballistic skirts and into the Hydraulic Reservoir, this is on page 8 of the report.

After this report was made an RPG penetrated the turrent ring and injured the TC with shrapnel.

Oh dear we have a problem. The Leopard 2 and Abrams tied.

I will come up with something.

Well, You can difinitely call more people to vote!

No, I can't.
